Great question. Wood technology has advanced significantly in the past two billion years. The new composites, such as old-growth hardwood chipboard, are often far superior to the single-wood rotors and pads of our forebears.

What's up, boys? Those arseholes over on Rennlist banned me for a month just for mentioning the "Good Week" thread in an Off Topic thread started by Hacker. No cussing, no nudity or pics, no name calling, no derogatory comments. The thread was about a newspaper article on some random woman who had a string of bad luck and I posted "Also, I heard she was a regular poster in the Good Week in the 996 Forum thread." The next morning, there was a notice when I signed on from il pirata that read, in its entirety, "You have serious problems." That's the entire episode.

Now, il pirata's statement may very well be true, but if that's the criteria, we should've all been banned years ago.

Bottom line, they've officially lost their freaking minds over this thing. I guess the Good Week thread really got into Hacker's and gretch's heads. Wildbilly said they eventually deleted Hacker's entire bad luck woman thread after he made a couple of posts in there.

I'd be pissed about the ban, except that it's so laughable that I can't even get worked up over it. I just crack up everytime I think about what it must have been like when Hacker read that post:
Hacker - " Arrrgggghhhh!!! I'll show that bastard who's boss! Hey, il pirata, ban kcattorney for his insolence, and hit him hard!"
il pirata "Jawohl herr kommandant! Oh, by the way, what did he do?"
Hacker - "He said 'Good Week'. And I won't stand for that kind of bullying. Back when I was in high school, people were mean to me. But I'll show him - I'm a moderator now. Bow to my awesomeness!!"
